The Power Of Optimism

The definition of Optimism:hopefulness and confidence aboutthe future or the successful outcome ofsomething.

Do you have hope that what you are pursuing is worth it? Are you confident that your consistent actions will yield fruitful results? One of the most important factors in the success of your endeavors depends on you and your mindset. Each day it is your responsibility, and yours alone, to reflect on your actions yesterday, refocus on your plan today, and to redirect your energy to accomplish your goals!

Three steps I use daily to reflect, refocus and redirect.

Wake up with a grateful heart. I wake up grateful to God for all he brought me through the day before and for giving me a fresh start. (This allows me to grateful for yesterday, to reflect on it, but also to begin to think about my new day.

I read my plan

I write my action steps, then do them.

"Pushing forward during difficult times requires

determination and faith in the purpose God

has given you."

We have to remember that our success is usually the result of a series of small steps completed over a period of time. That means the actions you take today is what secures your success for tomorrow. You don't have to get it all done today, but you should get some of it completed. This race you are running is a marathon, not a sprint!
